That compares to the >100,000 homicides per year by gun (
source - CDC).
Not wanting to get involved in the argument itself, but are you sure you did read the document properly?
I'm reading 11.078 gun related homicides (out of 16.259 total) for 2010.
That is quite a difference to the > 100.000 you mentioned and is less than 1/10th of accidents of all kinds and ~1,5% of all deaths.
If you consider that many of the gun related homicides are mutual gang killings, the probability of Joe Average being shot to death at home or on the street appears not to be that dramatically higher than the probability of being stabbed to death under similar circumstances here in good old Europe.
Being in a major urban area vs. rural area is likely to have a much much higher impact on probability of getting oneself deliberately killed by someone.
